today’s sage advice

Don’t do this:

A West Virginia man is being sentenced to life in prison after telling a judge he shot and killed his girlfriend last year … because he was mad that she woke him up in the middle of the night. [not much more]

(What? Yeah. No. I mean … don’t wake me up in the middle of the night.)

    *bang* (etc.)
    Oh, and don’t call me “Honey.” Name’s Douuuug!
    I ain’t just “the SO” or half of “us.”
    Keep it up, and I’ll be “the ex,” or you’ll be “the late.”
    (ergo, a bachelor still)

    Wake me up for sex, fine, other then that hide the gun first and tell me I’m dreaming.

    After seeing the *movie* and now this, I am forced to conclude that West Virginia men——need work—–on their guiles as a lover to women! [...or at least, wtf they say in a courtroom...]

    Don’t do this
    What? Don’t wake your husband up because you’ll get shot or don’t shoot your wife if she does wake you up? :))

    Uh, yeah.

    and don’t be drinking anything two hours before you go to bed so you’re not getting up in the middle of the night and waking me up.. .

    That and leave the cymbals locked in the garage.

    This kinda relates to an old theory of mine. Marry the ugliest girl you can find. She will never leave you—and—if she does, so fucking what?

  13. Posted September 30, 2012 at 9:51 am |

    Kinda pisses me off too. Must have gone through about 4 of ‘em that way.

    Yeah, but what if she woke him up for a blow job?

    Doug’s update: I like that Pooh Gun.

    8 + 10: I see that I have underestimated the subtlety of Doug’s humor.

    14: In that case, give her one. Then she’ll be in a good mood for the morning…. ….oh, you meant it the other way around… then it sounds to me like she’s a keeper and should definitely not be shot.

    Question: why does Michelle wake Captain Zero up in the middle of the night?

    Answer: to ask him if there are any expensive places left that they haven’t vacationed at yet, or whether they are going to have to start over with the old ones.
